[Question] How to apply new font to all textboxes on my project?

[dquinter]

Hi all.
I have a project with several textboxes, and I want everyone to have the same look & feel, and for that I want to apply a specific type of font.
How can I do it? One by one? Or can I create a new user control based on KryptonTextBox?
Thank you for any help you could give me.

New KryptonTextBox is a way, but is a bit messy
I think the answer is a custom Theme (Cannot remember how to do that, but there should be an app to help with that)
Or to override the loaded theme styles for the textbox (Requires knowledge of the styles, which you will get from the help app above)

Hey, Simon, thanks for the answer.

I'll give a try with a new theme.

If I remember all the font, colours etc stuff are all held in the 'StateCommon' section

I could create a new control to make access to these properties much easier

Hi Peter, it would be wonderful!

Hi @dquinter

Will do, but I may do this in September, as I want to take a short break from programming to get some new ideas for controls.

Hi @Wagnerp, excellent, a break with a coconut on the beach :)

At the moment, I decided to create a new user control based on KryptonTextBox, because because I need some specific functionality.

Thanks both a lot!

Hi @dquinter

I've created the control in the ExtendedToolkit project. It actually took me less time than I had expected!

Hi @Smurf-IV

I think that I can make these properties more visible to the user. I'll work on it in the ExtendedToolkit project.

Hi @dquinter

I'm going to transfer this to the Extended Toolkit project. I'm over half way through the controls which require text.

Hi @dquinter

Just an update, the target release is for October. Completed the StateCommon focusing on the other 'States' now.

Hi @dquinter & @Smurf-IV

A package is now available to allow you to do this.
